Reporting in from Nozawa Onsen!

Travel time was brutal - 6+ hr flight then 3 hr train then 30 min bus. And it's cold as hell up here in the hills. It's OK though, ski time!

Haven't touched a ski pole or a ski boot for I think 12 or 13 years, so consider not too bad lah.

It snowed today which was kind of cool and yet also annoying to get all the snow in your face when you're going down a slope.

just curious, why it's not advisable to go on golden week?

too many people?

about tax refund, do we need to buy above 10,000¥ in a single receipt??

London is fast but steady.. haha

Anyone has experience of bicycle touring in Japan?

what the difference between the pasmo and suica card ?

I have a plan for Tokyo trip in July. Since I will only be in metro Tokyo, JR Pass is not necessary I guess. I just can get PASMO card or something, correct?

But then, I have plan for Osaka trip after that. Can PASMO card be used in Kansai region? I'm a bit confused with how the different cards work based on region. I know PASMO and SUICA can be used in Tokyo, widely. Then I saw someone mentioned about another card. ICOCA I think.

**Osaka trip is for next year plan.

Yep, in tokyo u can either use PASMO or SUICA. while its ICOCA in Osaka.

Even though i was just in Tokyo last time, but some times i still transport in JR East. Its called Yamanote Line bcoz sometimes the destination i want to go is nearer if i use that line..And u don need to buy JR pass for that, bcoz u can use PASMO & SUICA on JR too.
